    From these playoffs id like to see Luxembourg, Bosnia and Estonia (Estonia has no chance they scored less goals than San Marino)

    Kvaratskhelia is comfortably the best player here but I don’t know if he’ll be able to carry Georgia past Greece.

    Georgia probably a lock here. They had harder opposition than the others in qualifiers and played well at times

      tbf if the playoffs were determined by the 3rd places, 3/4 of these teams would still make it

    Anyone but Greece. Not because I dislike them it would be great to see a new nation, I hope Georgia make it if they were an independent country in the 70’s,80’s they probably would have qualified

      My least favorite footballs fans are people like you. Same type of person to say that Luton and sheffield are a disgrace of football for being in the premier league and it should become 18 teams now

    I grew up in Luxembourg and played football there, i never thought there would be any chance to see them in a Euro in my lifetime. Rooting hard for them, they have a chance!

    That’s a very competitive path, and the winner would be a deserving participant:

    Kazakhstan had a shot at Slovenia to qualify outright.
    Greece was robbed at home against the Netherlands and played France closely at the Stade de France.
    Georgia drew with Norway and with Scotland and plays Abernathy adventurous football.
    Luxembourg beat Bosnia home and away, beat Iceland, and drew with Slovakia.

    I think that Greece is a favorite, but not by much.

      To be fair idk how much of a feat beating our current national team really is 😅

      Im legit shocked we could still qualify because we do not deserve it at all

    Unfortunately, Kvara will be serving suspension against Luxembourg due to yellow cards picked up during qualifiers

    As a Norwegian, these playoffs are so unfair. We finished above Georgia in the qualifier yet they get the chance to qualify through playoff, while we lost our playoff spot because Russia got kicked out and our wins against Sweden suddenly didn’t count.

      A very tiny portion of it is in Europe similar to Turkey. Also all the Soviet Republic’s were given the choice to join UEFA. Kazakhstan initially joined AFC but switched in 2002.
